Lü Shu looked at the Sun family that was surrounded, then looked at the other wealthy families that were several times the size of the Sun family. He asked curiously, "It looks like you want to break off relations with the wealthy families of the capital, but what right does the Sun family have to fight with so many people?"
At this time, 12 people stood out from behind Sun Zhongyang and stood at the front of the Sun family. Lü Shu realized that these 12 people were all first-grade experts.
Sun Zhongyang said calmly, "My father has been training his men of sacrifice since a hundred years ago. None of these twelve men of sacrifice will lose to the Flowery Robe Python Robe Guest. My Sun family can kill all the wealthy families in Royal City today as proof of our loyalty!"
Lü Shu was stunned. When he first heard about Sun Xiuwen, he did not pay much attention to him. Back then, someone said that Sun Xiuwen was the most promising person among the wealthy families of the capital to become a great grandmaster. Lü Shu felt that … was he very powerful?
However, to be able to stand out from the Royal City's wealthy families, one had to have something special about him. Even though the Divine King Palace had issued an imperial edict, he still decisively chose to bet the fate of the Sun family on him. This was a little interesting.
Furthermore, he was a genius who had been enduring for a hundred years and had nurtured twelve death warriors. Yet, he had never made a move against the Sun Family's Patriarch position and only stood out after Lv Shu had advanced to the Martial Grandmaster rank. It had to be said that in Lv Shu's opinion, this Sun Xiuwen was extremely powerful, patient, and ambitious. Most importantly … he had good foresight.
Lü Shu pondered for a while and said, "Why does your father dare to bet the fate of the Sun family on me?"
"Father said that the current situation of the world depends on you alone …" Sun Zhongyang explained.
Lü Shu nodded. "Yes, yes, what else did he praise me … No, what else did he say?"
Sun Zhongyang looked at Lü Shu in a daze, speechless. He realized that even at this time, Lü Shu was still so flippant!
"Negative emotion points from Sun Zhongyang, + 666!"
However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred. Someone from the Royal City's aristocratic families suddenly sneered. "No wonder your Sun Family is in such a hurry. So it turns out that you're in a hurry to seek refuge with Wu Weijun!"
Sun Zhongyang turned around and said calmly, "So what if I am?"
The man said, "Then have you ever thought that we might also be here to seek refuge with Wu Weijun …"
Sun Zhongyang: "???"
At this time, not only the Sun Family was stunned, but even Lü Shu was speechless. The sudden change in the situation caught him off guard. He asked in bewilderment, "You came all the way here with a dirty face just to seek refuge with Wu Weijun?"
A big slave from the Royal City's side suddenly knelt down. "Your Majesty, please accept us. We are willing to be at your beck and call!"
The originally tense scene suddenly became less serious. It was just that a large group of Royal City's aristocratic families had come to Lü Shu and said that they wanted to seek refuge with him. Even if it was true, Lü Shu had to have the guts to accept them first!
This group of Royal City's aristocratic families only had interests in their eyes. How could Lü Shu trust this group of people? Today, they said that they wanted to seek refuge because they had no other choice. After all, the power of life and death was now in his hands. In the future, when the other party seized the opportunity, they might want to kill Lü Shu.
Therefore, Sun Zhongyang's biggest mistake was to be with this group of aristocratic families. There was no basis for trust between them in the first place, and he still chose to seek refuge with so many people while being surrounded. In such a situation, how could Lü Shu trust them so easily?
In fact, Lü Xiaoyu, Carol, and Chen Zu'an could see the fate of these people at a glance and had already begun to mourn for them.
But what could Sun Zhongyang do? He was also very desperate.
According to his plan, shouldn't the Sun family be the first to get in touch with Wu Weijun and gain his trust?
At this moment, a person from the Song family walked out and took out a letter. He said loudly, "Your Majesty, I am the head shopkeeper of the Song family's gambling house, Xiao Mingze, and High Priest Zhao Shuai, who asked me to bring you a letter."
Li Heitan walked over and handed the letter to Lü Shu. Lü Shu opened it and read it. This Song family really intended to surrender?
After all, Xiao Mingze had privately given him thousands of magic artifacts and armors. At that time, no one was optimistic about Lü Shu. If Lü Shu really died in the hands of Duanmu Huangqi, all the things that Xiao Mingze had given him would be wasted.
The Song family envoy did not mention the previous gifts and only said, "Xiao Mingze misses you very much, Your Majesty …"
Lü Shu smiled and put the letter away. "We still have to give face to Shopkeeper Xiao and High Priest Zhao."
The Song family heaved a sigh of relief. Just as the rumors said, this person was indeed easier to get along with than Duanmu Huangqi …
The other wealthy families of the royal city looked at the Song family in a daze. Now that everyone could die on the spot, they realized that the Song family had long been in contact with Lü Shu.
At this time, everyone was a little regretful that they did not build a relationship with Wu Weijun in advance. It was too late to say anything now.
If Lü Shu really went on a killing spree later, everyone would die, but the Song family would definitely be fine.
The difference between life and death was obvious.
Someone suddenly said, "Your Majesty, the Li family is willing to provide resources to Wu Weijun. The head of the family has spoken. As long as you ask for it, we will definitely try our best to fulfill it!"
Sun Zhongyang's heart went cold. It was over. The excuse he had thought of was stolen by someone else. One must know that this young man was really greedy for money!
Sun Zhongyang's intestines turned green with regret. Why did he not directly state the conditions when he knew that the other party was a player who only cared about money? He quickly added, "Your Majesty, the Sun family can also do this!"
"Your Majesty, we also …"
"Your Majesty!"
Lü Shu felt a little emotional. He was indeed not suitable for planning. Li Liang said that as long as the person who flipped the table had strength, they did not need to care too much about money. Naturally, there would be people who would come to his door. In the end, the other party was right.
If not for Li Liang's words, he would still be living a tight life.
However, as he shouted "Your Majesty" again and again, Lü Shu suddenly felt like he had returned to Azure Dragon Village, and in front of him was a large-scale scene of worshipping.
However, the problem he had to face now was how should he deal with this group of people? It was inappropriate to bring them along, and it was inappropriate to kill them all. It was even more inappropriate to chase them away and let them go.
At this moment, Sun Zhongyang shouted, "Your Majesty, the Sun family is the most sincere. We have been rushing all the way to get rid of them and meet you alone!"
Lü Shu was stunned for a moment. He was a little curious. "Then why didn't you get rid of them?"
Sun Zhongyang was stunned. That was a good question. Yes, why didn't they get rid of them …
In fact, Lü Shu was more inclined to believe Sun Zhongyang because for some reason, he had a hunch that the hero of the capital named Sun Xiuwen did have the courage to make such a bold bet.
Sun Zhongyang pointed at the other rich families and said eagerly, "Your Majesty, the Sun family is really the most anxious to meet you, but they are too close to us to get rid of. If you don't believe me, you can ask them!"
Lü Shu looked at the others, and they said in unison, "Your Majesty, there is no such thing."
Sun Zhongyang: "???"
The other rich families sneered inwardly. Who are you following? The rich families of the capital live and die together!
